Chapter 45: How Did Her Mother Die?

After a while, Dai Yue returned, her little mouth pursed and her expression gloomy.

"What's wrong Daiyue, what's wrong?"

Luo Qingluan saw her like this, as if she was being taught a lesson, not someone else.

I went to inquire secretly just now, but it turned out that Mrs. Fang's yard was so noisy, and she looked like she was killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, not only called all the girls around her to come and see, but also asked her subordinates to hit that person's face hard, and Dai Yue, who saw it, couldn't help the pain on her face.

Later, after listening to Mama Song's words, I learned that there was a girl who seduced the master, and was seen by Mrs. Fang, so she was severely punished, and finally the girl's face was swollen and dragged out of the general's mansion.

"Mama Song told me that Sister Bitao didn't seduce the master at all, because Mrs. Fang didn't like her at all, and deliberately found a reason to send her out of the house." As soon as she thought of this, Dai Yue's little face wrinkled, scared and frightened.

"If you don't like it, forget it, a girl, who does my aunt want to punish is not a punishment? Over the years, she relied on her father not to marry anyone else, and she looked like a housewife, and now that her sister has become the concubine of the fifth prince, where will she still look at other people? ”

Luo Qingluan said lightly: "Forget it, as long as she doesn't punish you, we don't care so much." ”

Originally, she didn't take it to heart, because there were many such things in the past, but Daiyue said: "Miss, it's not like this, if Mrs. Fang punishes other people, the slave and maid won't talk about it, but I heard Mama Song say that Sister Bitao used to serve Mrs. ”

With a move in his eyes, Luo Qingluan was a little surprised: "What, have you served my mother?" ”

She didn't know anything about this, otherwise she wouldn't have taken it to heart. Her mother went early, she didn't even see her, and she didn't have any status in the General's Mansion before, except for a Dai Yue by her side, and Mama Song took care of her, where did she know anything about the past?

"What did Mama Song tell you, Daiyue, tell me." Unconsciously, Luo Qingluan's tone sank.

"Miss, I didn't know it before, if you hadn't asked the slave maid to inquire tonight, and you happened to meet Mama Song was also there, she couldn't bear to see it, so she told me more."

Saying that, she was a little afraid, and Dai Yue whispered: "I heard that half of the girls who have been killed or sent away by Mrs. Fang over the years have served Mrs. Even some people who occasionally talked about Madame were kicked out by Madame Side. The slave doesn't know why, the lady has passed away for so many years, why the side lady still hates her so much. ”

If so, what's wrong with that?

Luo Qingluan originally wanted Daiyue to go to Mama Song to ask what was going on, but it was too late, for fear of affecting Mama Song's rest. She is in poor health when she is old, and she is tired enough during the day, so let her rest well at night.

Looking back, Luo Qingluan didn't ask about her mother, but no one knew. It's not that those subordinate girls don't say it, or they don't pay attention to her at all, thinking that she was cowardly and stupid at the beginning, and she didn't have this mind at all, even if she is reborn now, she never really doubted it.

It seems that she still needs to investigate this matter.

Why did Wang Xueru beat all her mother's maids to death or send them away? Is it really just because she made a mistake, or simply because Wang Xueru didn't like it? Or is there some hidden secret?

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Luo Qingluan was ready to leave the house.

Dai Yue has already inquired, the girl named Bi Tao last night has been sent out of the house and sent home to never be used again. She was beaten so badly, if she didn't treat it quickly, I was afraid that the whole person would be disfigured.

Since Mama Song knew something, but didn't tell her, Luo Qingluan guessed what her intentions were, but it didn't prevent her from doing an investigation first and knowing something to better understand what was going on back then.

With Dai Yue, the two changed into a set of men's clothes and still went out of the house through the back door.

But when Luo Qingluan found the mouth of a remote alley in the north of the city and saw that there were people in front of him, he knew what was going on from the discussion.

Bi Tao was actually chased. The debtor was killed, and she was not the only one, along with her father and mother, and her younger brother, all of whom were killed. Now the government is investigating, but looking at the perfunctory appearance, I just looked around in front of the hut, but I am afraid that the investigation will not yield any results at all.

Luo Qingluan also wanted to ask Bi Tao what happened last night, if she really served her mother before, she could also give her some silver to treat her injuries. Who knows...... She was late.

Absolutely not believing that it is really a simple chase. If this is the case, how can people on the streets know about it so quickly? Those chasing. Shouldn't debtors clean their hands and feet so as not to be discovered?

I'm afraid that someone is deliberately spreading rumors, trying to find a reasonable reason to cover up the past, but it is such a coincidence, but Bi Tao was punished yesterday and died today, the deep meaning of this really made Luo Qingluan think deeply.

"Let's go, Daiyue, let's go back."

"Miss, Sister Bi Tao died so miserably...... "Dai Yue was a little sad, and her eyes were red.

"If she really died in vain, I won't let the murderer go unpunished."

Luo Qingluan returned to the General's Mansion and changed back into her clothes, so she asked Mama Song, who was working, that Daiyue had found.

"Is there something wrong with the young lady calling me?" Mama Song's face was wrinkled, and she seemed to be a little tired, and she knew that she was still busy just now. Luo Qingluan asked her to sit down, and asked Dai Yue to bring her a cup of tea, and waited for her to drink and rest for a while before she spoke.

"I heard that my aunt's room was very noisy last night, so I asked Daiyue to ask, does the nurse know about this girl named Bi Tao?" didn't ask directly, Luo Qingluan was a little more tactful, and didn't want to scare Mama Song.

"Well, why did Mademoiselle ask about this?"

Mama Song looked a little surprised, but still said: "Over the years, Mrs. Fang has driven away all the girls who served Madame before, or she is looking for a reason to kill her, which is really ruthless." Even I didn't know that Bi Tao had served Madame before, but I still heard what she shouted, and I suddenly realized. If it weren't for that, I'm afraid she wouldn't be ......."

With his eyes moving, Luo Qingluan asked, "What did she shout?" ”

Mama Song frowned, as if recalling: "At that time, I happened to pass by the courtyard of Mrs. Fang, and was about to go to the kitchen to boil water, when I heard Bi Tao's voice, she said something she didn't hear clearly, but then she was slapped in the face, and then she screamed and said something 'safflower soup'." ”

I hadn't paid attention to it yet, but last night Mama Song also heard a big commotion in Mrs. Song's room, so she stood and listened for a while. Who knew that then Mrs. Fang made a fuss, saying that Bi Tao seduced the master something, it was a mess at the time, and it attracted a lot of people, and she didn't hear much clearly.

Safflower soup? As soon as he heard this, Luo Qingluan moved his mind.

Although safflower is a medicine, it is not something that can be taken by anyone, and once the dose is large, it will cause miscarriage, so it will not appear easily whether it is in the harem or in the ordinary person's home.

"Nurse, do you know that Bi Tao died today?" Luo Qingluan asked tentatively.

"Ah...... He's dead? Bi Tao is dead? Mama Song was taken aback, with indescribable fear and surprise in her eyes. She looked lost and depressed, lowered her head and lost her senses, as if she had forgotten that there was Luo Qingluan next to her, muttering vigorously, babbling in her mouth, but she couldn't hear what she was saying.

"Nurse, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Mama Song like this, Luo Qingluan was even more suspicious.

What happened last night, because Bi Tao died, I'm afraid that no one except Wang Xueru knows. But if you ask Wang Xueru, she will never tell the truth, she is just beating and scolding a girl, and she is still the identity of Mrs. Fang, even Luo Cheng will not talk about her casually.

And Mama Song, the only one who heard the movement at that time, didn't know anything about it, and looking at her appearance, she was obviously hiding something in her heart. She was afraid that she wanted to find out about this matter, but she was afraid that she would have to start with Mama Song.

"Nurse, do you think it's because Bi Tao once served my mother, so my aunt beat her to death?"

When it came to the deceased lady, Mama Song suddenly became different, looking at Luo Qingluan's serious face, as if she had noticed something, she was shocked, and hesitated to take the opportunity to say it.

It's just that...... Back then, she was only suspicious of this, and there was no real evidence, if the young lady knew about it, and rashly went to ask Mrs. Fang, wouldn't it hurt her?

Let's wait a little longer, now that the eldest lady is married, the lord only has a daughter left by the miss, and the miss is different from before, I am afraid that the lord will slowly change his opinion and pay attention to her. At that time, it may be much better to mention it to the young lady again.

"I don't know, after all, I don't know Bi Tao, this matter ......" Mama Song had a plan in her heart, and didn't say everything she knew, Luo Qingluan asked a few words, but didn't ask anything, so she just gave up.

Let Mama Song go down to rest and do as little work as possible, Luo Qingluan kept this matter in his heart and left it alone for the time being.

was about to go out to the study to find Boss Li, Luo Qingluan never expected that Luo Cheng, who had always paid no attention to her, would make a special trip to see her.

The smile on his face was also a little more, and Wang Xueru's face next to him was even more ugly, Luo Qingluan didn't know what was going on, but seeing that Luo Cheng's face was good, it shouldn't be a bad thing.

"Dad never came to my small courtyard, but today you have something to do with me?" There wasn't much of a smile, Luo Qingluan asked lightly.

A flash of embarrassment flashed, Luo Cheng coughed, cleared his throat and said, "Do you have to have something to do when my father comes to see you?" Just now, the queen sent someone to send an edict and rewarded you with some things, so my father specially brought it to you. ”

It turns out that this is the case, no wonder it is said that her father has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. Only then did Luo Qingluan notice that there were two subordinates behind Luo Cheng, both holding things in their hands.

After the next person put the things on the table, Luo Cheng looked at the yard again, there was no view, and it was overgrown with weeds. As for Luo Qingluan's room, it is even more shabby, and there are no furnishings. He spoke: "Qingluan, the yard you live in is also a little old, you should find someone to renovate it, and the things in your room, by the way, let people change them......

Which pot is this? When did her father, who never cared about her, be so kind?
